A placed copper rail can be modified using the following functions:
- Change length
- Change angle
- Change bending positions
- New bending position
- Delete, Copy, Paste, Cut, Move, Duplicate, Edit properties, Unite, Rotate around axis.
All functionalities can be applied to rails created with flat bending or edgewise bending.
Unchangeable copper items
The length, angle and bending positions of a placed copper item are generally changeable. In practice, however, there is the requirement that copper items are to be standardized or purchased in a fixed set form. Such parts, which are not variable, should not be possible to be modified after placement.
This behavior can be controlled using the Prefabricated property that can be activated on the item, e.g., in a macro. Once this property exists and has been activated, the copper item can no longer be modified after placement. If this property is deactivated, the functions for editing copper items can be applied again.
